Figure 4. Postural defects in animals lacking PVD.

Figure 4

Analysis of N2 (n=34), −P (n=21), and mec-10 (n=18). Significant differences relative to N2 are indicated by a double asterisk (P<0.01). (A) Diagrammatic representation of parameters used for postural analysis. Circles surround cut-points between the central body axis or “skeleton” and a straight line connecting the head and tail. (B) Average bending angle. (C) Cut-point number. (D) Average amplitude. For each animal the amplitude is divided by the length in mm. (E) Representative tracks of animals from the different strains. Scale bar 1mm.
